Connect Formbricks MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Formbricks to VS Code Copilot and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Team-wide survey management via this MCP Server
The `list_surveys` tool lets your team inspect active feedback campaigns directly from the VS Code Copilot chat. By committing the server configuration to your repo, every engineer gets instant access to check survey status or pull active questions. This stops developers from guessing which survey ID to use in their code. You ask Copilot to list the campaigns, select the right one, and insert its properties directly into your workspace files.
Fetch real-time response data in VS Code Copilot
The `get_response` tool retrieves specific customer submissions directly into your editor panel. When debugging a user-reported issue, your agent pulls their exact survey answers to see what went wrong, without needing access to the main database. This speeds up troubleshooting. You can combine this with `get_contact_details` to map the feedback to a specific user ID, letting you isolate the bug in your code right away.
Configure environments without leaving your editor
The `get_environment_info` tool gives Copilot the exact context of your production and staging setups. Your agent runs `get_product_info` to verify which features are enabled, ensuring your survey triggers match the active product tier. This prevents deployment mistakes. You can check if a survey is pointing to development or production before you push your code, keeping your telemetry clean.
